Currency conversions incoming with 'World of Warcraft's' 5.2 update (Photos)

With the 5.2 update currently background downloading, players can expect the upcoming "World of Warcraft" update soon. In this update, players with Valor and Conquest points will have those points converted to Justice and Honor points respectively at a one to one rate.

It is advised to spend these points now unless a player needs the extra Justice and Honor points post 5.2. The conversion will occur when the patch releases but the cap to Justice and Honor will still be in place.

If a player has enough Valor, for example, to go past the Justice cap the extra points will be converted to money. Extra Valor will be worth 47 silver per point while extra Honor will be 35 silver per point.

The 5.2 update will also bring a new raid, new dailies, new reputations, new loot, and a slew of changes to the game's classes.
